stop losses arent weakness. they are how you stay in the game. i use a fixed percentage i can afford to lose per trade. if i risk 2% of my capital i know exactly when to cut a bad trade. position sizing is just the math behind that. you size your position so that if you hit your stop you only lose that 2%. simple example. you have a 1,000 account. your stop is 10% away from entry. your max loss is 20. so you buy 200 units. not 2,000. not 500. 200. that is how you survive a bad week. DCA is for buying not trading. it smooths out your entry averages over time. do not mix them. DCA is a strategy for accumulation. stop losses are for active risk control. trying to use a stop loss with a long-term DCA plan creates friction. pick one approach. stick to it. the market will test your discipline. you cannot predict the next candle. you can only manage what you can control. that is your edge.
